A Tampa renter said she was stunned after opening her lease renewal email and seeing a proposed monthly rate she described as unbelievable. The woman, who posts on TikTok under the name Emlegs (@emlegssssss), said the figures made her “jaw fall to the ground.”
Emlegs said in her video that she lives in a two-bedroom apartment in the Channelside neighborhood of Tampa. She said that if she chose to sign another 12-month lease, her current lease term, her rent would go up by more than $1,000.
